Pulsational pair-instability supernovae in gravitational-wave and electromagnetic transients
D. D. Hendriks, L. A. C. van Son, M. Renzo +2
Current observations of binary black-hole ({BBH}) merger events show support for a feature in the primary BH-mass distribution at , previously interpr…
Close Encounters of Star - Black Hole Binaries with Single Stars
Taeho Ryu, Selma de Mink, Rob Farmer +3
Multi-body dynamical interactions of binaries with other objects are one of the main driving mechanisms for the evolution of star clusters. It is thus important to bring our unders…
Constraints from gravitational wave detections of binary black hole mergers on the rate
Robert Farmer, Mathieu Renzo, Selma de Mink +2
Gravitational wave detections are starting to allow us to probe the physical processes in the evolution of very massive stars through the imprints they leave on their final remnant…
Polluting the pair-instability mass gap for binary black holes through super-Eddington accretion in isolated binaries
L. A. C. van Son, S. E. de Mink, F. S. Broekgaarden +6
The theory for single stellar evolution predicts a gap in the mass distribution of black holes (BHs) between approximately 45-130M, the so-called "pair-instability mass g…
Laminar Flame Speeds in Degenerate Oxygen-Neon Mixtures
Josiah Schwab, R. Farmer, F. X. Timmes
The collapse of degenerate oxygen-neon cores (i.e., electron-capture supernovae or accretion-induced collapse) proceeds through a phase in which a deflagration wave ("flame") forms…
The diverse lives of progenitors of hydrogen-rich core-collapse supernovae: the role of binary interaction
Emmanouil Zapartas, Selma E. de Mink, Stephen Justham +7
Hydrogen-rich supernovae, known as Type II (SNe II), are the most common class of explosions observed following the collapse of the core of massive stars. We use analytical estimat…
